HLJ Bit Char-g BIG sale items
 

Hobby Link Japan is having a HUGE SALE,follow this link. I just picked up a bB and Honda wagon kits for $9.71 ea. :eek:. Check it out before they're gone.

Wow, that's really cheap.... How much did they charge you for S/H???

silla

Actually payaso I didn't try to figure it, I was too excited about the ultra cheap price. Even if the charge me $20.00 for UPS it'll still be worth it, cause I'm still only paying like $40.00 for 2 kits. :D

Hey no problem Dappa-Dan. :D

i just ordered a bB and Accord Wagon. gonna give one of them to a friend of mine:)

Dude thankks for the heads up.....so far since you posted I think 4 or 5 have been bought....i just got my yelow open Deck.....9 something...uS...and who cares about shipping...it;s dirt cheap for the best BIT out there.......

thanks alot for the link! I havnt even seen that site yet. Might buy one of those 2 but I also noticed they have really good prices (ie $13 US for a booster controller!) I also noticed they have the Auto Modellista set and the 350Z in. Are these booster cars or no? On the Tomy site- here it says that they are both boosters, but they seem to have a normal controller -

Im guessing the 2 spd only works with the booster controller then? BTW I still have no bit so this would be my first one. Id like to get 2 or 3 cars with a few things like motors and bodies. help me plz? :D

THX!! :) :)

I doubt it will go over 12 for shipping. I've dealt with hlj a year before and I remember paying very little for shipping, just beware of the shipping time. Sometimes they can take forever, took three weeks for my order to get her because of some holiday that closed the UPS offices.

Sweet... thats an even better deal :D

Fairlady authenticity?
 

notice the chassis The pcb cover is weird and it is assembled in the box http://www.hlj.com/cgi-local/hljpage.cgi?TOM63714

Your welcome, my mission is to spread the good word of the bit. The Auto Modellista set would definetly be a good choice, more bang for your buck, plus it's two speed and comes with a 2.2 motor an excellent starter set and more. In regards to the controller, yes it is standard one but it does have a boost button on it... hell yeah. And check out the Z's controller it's BLACK... :eek:

Some how I managed to overlook the boost button...have you seen any larger pics? As for the auto modellista, the price seems a bit high for me and im not completely partial to the wheels (weird 3 spokes) so I think Ill wait for that one to go on Ebay. as for Hobbylink... Ive decieded to Get:

TOM63714 G-24 Nissan Fairlady Z (Z35) (57MHz)
TOM62855 G-15 Accord Wagon White Pearl (35MHz)
TOM63716 GM-11 Supra Castrol Body Set
TOM63511 GS-05 Micro Motor 2.6
TOM59026 Setting Parts Set A (Gear)

all tolled comes to 43.91 US or $70 CDN. Is this a good first purchase? Id like to get 2 cars, and really want a booster. I dont know when Ill have money for another order so this has to do for a while. I would have got the bB as well but the 350Z is already 57MHZ. -Also I read a while back, that the 57mhz cars are really glitchy and short ranged,,,,is that generally true? Any other ideas for this first timer? THX!! :D:D:D:D

I'm 99% sure that the chassis is an OEM brand that bit body is on, the wheels in the set should be Tomy's standard ones.

looks like a good start to me :) , i'm definetly getting a Fairlady too... it's to damn cool.

To be honest I won't know myself until I get my bB, I've got a 27mhz and 45mhz. ;)

thx again! Yeah your probably right about the wheels. On the Tomy site they are the standard ones http://www.tomy.co.jp/bit_charg/images/top_10.gif
hopefully they still have the Hondas in tomarrow when I place my order :o :confused:

thx! :D

btw if anyone wants to see bigger pics of the sets, here they are:
Auto Modelista
Fairlady 350Z

I guessing the boost is on the top right as with the 4 band controllers?

:D :D

looks like these new black controllers have a boost built in:eek:
but i've already have a boost controller.
I was RIGHT!!!!! the Z IS a 2 speed!:D

YES! I HAVE TO GET ONE! Are there any more pictures of the controller?! I HAVE TO KNOW! :D

hmmm not that I have seen, maybe try toy east...
:D :cool:

Did that... They don't have anything new... Not even Modelista I fink... :(

I want one NOW:mad: ....actually I just bought the 25mhx wagon..i laready have it..but I want another 35mhz car.....

All my standard bits ran about 6 or 7 feet except the 27 Mhzs. The were weaker. I guess that the batch is important. BAE

Thanks for the heads up, I just ordered the Accord and the Bb, more for the chassis than the bodies, for $10 each I dont care what they look like!!

No problem at all, I'm pretty much thinking the same thing about the chassis too... already got the bB myself.

the chassis is what i got them for....and the Yellow Open Deck..I think I have every color except the black Milk one...

Damn no money
 

damn damn damn good deal + no funds=damn does anyone know how long it will last? all i need is til saturday
so you people better save me at least one of each

Re: Shipping costs?
 

$6.

LOL I e-mailed HLJ to compliment them on their sale and there site, here is their response....

:p

becareful!
 

Thats really low of the shop! HLJ said they would sell them but they turn around and say they might not have enough! BULL! I hate this seller, he known to change a cheap price and rip you off on shipping. I don`t trust them just be very very careful dealing with them HLJ is just another asian seller taking advantage trendy items selling out of Japan. Here is a exampe....... There is a super discount shop selling a Bit Char-G package for 3,000 yen but what this fool does is charge you 5,000yen + shipping 2,000- 7,000 yen easy! I know the names of super discount shops that sells them even cheaper then the hobby shops and alike. I see then all the time. Don`t deal with HLJ unless your in welling to feed this troll!

then were do we go, if not HLJ?.....I have orderd 2 of them from them.....are they not comming now.....:(

yeah Usagi....you would be or connection to the eastern world.......

um.........I could do it:) for you guys...... Let me think about this and see if I can pull it off for you guys:)

that would be great! :) what is the average price of a standard bit set in Japan? (yen or USD) thx! very much appreciated!! :D

Acutally, HLJ's manager/founder is an American and you can find out all about him on a link on "Company Info." I do agree with you all on the display of acutal shipping costs, but they do take a small step in showing the approx. shipping price of each item next to the item price itself, but that's still not enough. I checked the shipping cost for the New Tomy Bit Char-g Nissan Z (2-Speed) and it is 700 Yen UPS shipping. It is about $5 USD, but I'm not sure its exactly that since they say its an approx. price and they don't state anything else about shipping in the "Checkout Counter." Anyways, they should really solve the "shipment cost crisis." Basically my overall rating for HLJ is 7.5 out of 10 since shipments do arrive if you paid for it, but its the matter of time and untruthful shipping costs.

Oh yeah... BTW, Usagi, try to get some Bit Char-gs in your hands and sell them to us in prices you got it for, so you won't loose any bling, but we all might chip in some extra "Thank-you $$$" for you... Right TinyRC.com forum members?! "YES!," exclaims all TinyRC.com Forum Members. LoL. Well, I bet we all are pretty serious, so see what you can do and we'll appreciate all your efforts. BTW, I would like a Tomy Bit Char-g Nissan Z (2-Speed)! :D

YES! right there with you! forsure forsure! :D

I know he is american, maybe a XG\I..............

the ave price ranges from for from 2900 yen to 3200 This is a Guestomat :)

Ex, I see what I can do...........I need to find out cost to you and shipping to diff part of the world to ge to you people.

i ordered a accord
 

i ordered a honda accord.
im still waitin for them to tell me how much the shipping is so i jus e-mailed them saying exactly how much will it be.

i will update soon telling me how much the shipping will be. probably £££££££££

I'd be very happy to join in. I need 2 speed cars. 1 27 and 1 35 Mhz, just to start. I don't mind sending a gift through Paypal to our gracious host. BAE

By '2 speed' I mean Booster cars. Thanks. BAE

I am sorry. I didn't mean to preasure anybody. I just wanted to let anybody who can help know that I (and the rest of us) have a wish list and I wouldn't mind helping somebody else with their own list if they can help others of us with ours. This way none of us would be put out very much individually but it would add up fast. And I'd rather send my cash to a friend rather than a nameless company. Thats my $0.05. BAE
